I have wanted to try the crispy version of Chinese deep-fried Pork wonton Recipe. I first ate them at a local food court in Singapore. They are crispy and delicious which makes it a perfect homemade appetizer for potluck parties.
One can just buy these store bought wonton wrappers or wonton pastries. Store them in the freezer for a long time. Remove as many as you need when you want to use them. Leave the rest back in the freezer. The filling can be prawns, spinach, pork, chicken, tofu, cheese etc of your choice. Sometimes chopped fresh water chestnut is also used to mix with the fillings. For greens make sure to squeeze out any extra amount of water before using it for filling.
